Overseas, it would packaged with Vandal Hearts II, which was released on November 30, 1999 in North America, and June 30, 2000 in Europe. Only the Japanese version of the demo was available before the full release of Suikoden II in its respective territory.

The demo was described as a "Demo" on packaging and in its manual but as a "Trial Version" in the game itself. The demo came with two selections; New Game (also referred to as 'Story Mode') and Battle Mode. Saving is disabled in both modes. Story Mode is merely a full gameplay slice of Suikoden II, from the beginning of the game until the boss battle against the [[Mist Shade]] on [[North Sparrow Pass]]. After naming the [[Hero (Suikoden II)|main character]] there is no option to import [[Suikoden]] data. As the demo was released overseas virtually concurrently with the full game, the English language localization is identical to the full game.
